Good-bye construction trailer!

April 26, 2013

The construction team removed the office trailer from the site… a sign that the project is in the final stages!

It has been a couple of busy weeks at the Volpe Expansion Project! Arena Systems installed all of the cold piping which, once the ice is in, will have freezing cold glycol constantly run though it to keep the ice frozen in the new rink. At the existing rink, drywall was finished and sanded at the new view boxes. The drywall company also worked on finishing the rest of the project so that the painter can continue finishing spaces. The plumbers and electricians began work on the hydrotherapy pools in what will be the new Sports Medicine area. Exterior doors and windows were installed so that the buildings can be secured. Lights were installed in the lobby area so that drywall operations could be completed and the area readied for the concrete floor to be stained. The painter has been following the drywall operations and the ceiling grid will be installed after painting is finished. The facility will have permanent power turned on this week so that the HVAC systems can be started up.
